1980 College World Series
Arizona over Hawaii at Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium.
What happened. Arizona won the 1980 College World Series, beating Hawaii in the final, under Jerry Kindall. It was played at Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium, Omaha.
Where it sits. The 2nd of 4 for Arizona. Their previous title was 4 years earlier, in 1976. Hawaii has never won one. Reaching the final is as close as that program has come.
What the tournament looked like that year. Eight teams, one pure double elimination bracket. The classic Rosenblatt format. That format ran from 1950 through 1987.
The ballpark. Sixty-one tournaments. The reason Omaha means what it means.
